Minneapolis pastor: "There's a saying around here, ‘When does the ice go out?' When does the ice melt off the lakes? It's called Ice Out Day, you know people will park old cars on the lakes—or they used to—and they make bets on when the car would sink in. We know how to wait for ice out."

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.

You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.

The Hortmans were assassinated seven months ago. The Annunciation Church school shooting was five months ago. Renee Good was murdered three weeks ago to the day. It has been eight days since they took 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father. It has been four days since Alex Pretti was murdered.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Been thinking about how we’re not okay here in Minnesota and how events and the state of affaires are echoing in our day to day world. A thread. cw: suicide

Our @mprnews.org liveblog is up and running Wednesday morning with news around the ICE surge in the Twin Cities. It's a good, easy way to keep up on what's happening. www.mprnews.org/live-updates

If any of you out there are looking for a new place to make a financial donation to help out in Minneapolis - this would be the place!

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.

Every time Ilhan goes out in public she is risking her life. Since she was first elected. Every. Time. She is the bravest person in politics.

Reporting like this is critical to understanding the depravity (and illegality) of what is happening.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Please, we're so tired

Ilhan Omar is an American hero. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Ilhan Omar is fucking awesome. What a badass! 👊

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Federal immigration officers tried to enter Ecuadorian consulate in Minneapolis but were stopped, foreign minister says www.axios.com/2026/01/28/i...

Federal deployment to Minneapolis "is steady state and expected to continue as planned," per Border Patrol memo leaked to me

It’s been 39 days since the Epstein files were supposed to be released.

a reporter asked “is mutual aid a form of resistance?” and i felt my body pulled into of a room of movement elders who have made this seem like a question i don’t have to think about to respond of course of course mutual aid is an expression of love love is an act of resistance

You might be shocked to see how often places like Minneapolis and Duluth used to drop to -20 or -30 degrees in the winter. Sven Sundgaard breaks it down here: https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-weather/sven-sundgaard-this-level-of-extreme-cold-used-to-be-normal-in-minnesota

I've been representing protesters pro bono since Trump 1.0. In that time, I've represented protesters against the Muslim ban, ICE, trans bans, DEI bans, genocide in Occupied Palestine, police brutality, and more. Want to know why more people don't protest? Here's why.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

We all love jokes so, instead of promoting my own material Today- I am highlighting a fellow comedian, Comrade Tripp He is hands down one of my favorite Minneapolis comics 🩵 @comradetripp.bsky.social #ICE #ICEout #Minnesota #Minneapolis #Resist

I’m so tired of feckless Democrats. You have a chance right now to do something REAL. Something that matters and will keep people safe. WHY WON’T YOU DO IT?!

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

Here's how to identify some crowd control munitions, canisters of which federal agents have left on the ground after deploying them against people in Minnesota. bit.ly/3YWp1jE Graphic by Mark Boswell/The Minnesota Star Tribune

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

How the hell was this 23 days ago

That's not a cheap one liner. He said it TWICE. When people show you who they are, believe them.

“Never start a land war in Asia” needs to be modified to “Never invade Minnesota in Winter”

As opposed to the SIgnal chats he uses to arrange private plane pickups for his girlfriend?? Would love to see how he tries to make this argument: so you see there are these Lutheran church ladies in a group chat organizing pot lucks, who also organize distributing food to the needy & oh whistles 🙄

really fucking important to realize that greg bovino is getting fired not in spite of there being no riots, but because there were no riots

If you're in line to demoralize an ICE agent, STAY IN LINE.

The day all of these monsters finally leave MN I feel like the most Minnesotan thing to do is have the biggest potluck in state history. Bars as far as the eyes can see. The power grid being strained by the collective energy being used by a million slow cookers. A Hamm’s pony keg on every corner…

I'm glad the worst people on earth are on their back foot today but until the two murderers are arrested and prosecuted this is all fluff

Would like to see Minnesota lawmakers push to ban the use of CS gas and other forms of chemical irritants in our state. Especially those that have already been banned under international law.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Looking forward to the day when we win hard enough to not need articles like “what are the paramilitaries spraying at you?: a helpful guide”

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

This is excellent.

This is where my kid went to school, several moons ago. Where the US citizen was kidnapped wearing shorts and Crocs. Good people. They could use a hand. Venmo in the image.

Can’t get over that Pretti’s parents yesterday woke up thinking everything was normal and by the end of the day they were watching the federal government trash their dead son.

I spent my morning putting this guide together from sources all over the place. Happy to hear from anyone with suggested inclusions, deletions, or edits. [email protected], or you can hit my DMs here. Please share!

Conservatives seem baffled by the amount of organization going on in MSP. A reminder that Prince died in the afternoon, and by nightfall the entire city has shut down and turned into a well organized dance party celebrating his life. The only thing bigger than MSP hearts are their brains.

Twice this week when meeting a new person I've gotten an excited "Wow, it must be an exciting time to be a political scientist!" and both times I've answered "Not really. That's like telling someone it's an exciting to be a surgeon when there's a 63 car pileup on the highway."

Damn proud of Minnesota.

“People in MN had hand warmers!” you absolute fucking imbeciles
